------------------------------------------+---------------------------------
 When running gnome-settings-daemon (it gets started automatically by
 upstream gnome-session), several UI elements look "odd" and some of the
 icons cannot be found:

 {{{
 1336484680.188363 WARNING root: No icon with the name computer-xo was
 found in the theme.
 [...]
 1336484682.013522 WARNING root: No icon with the name view-radial was
 found in the theme.
 1336484682.027658 WARNING root: No icon with the name view-list was found
 in the theme.
 [...]
 }}}


 Similar effects can be seen if {{{GTK2_RC_FILES}}} is unset, so it's quite
 likely that at least some of the effects could be attributed to the sugar
 GTK theme not being used. In fact, if I run {{{gsettings set
 org.gnome.desktop.interface gtk-theme sugar-100}}} manually (which will
 change settings globally, not just for Sugar), things look much better,
 though the icons are still broken. So we probably need to figure out how
 to achieve all of what we did in gtkrc so far, without changing settings
 globally.


 This is on an up-to-date Debian Wheezy system.
